Open a card’s history when a customer needs help. Resend the email to its saved address if they cannot find the original.

Keep an eye on outstanding gifts

See the total value still waiting to be spent. Export the records when you need them outside Tillable.

Know where it was sold

If you have several sites, filter cards by the site that sold them.

One gift. One visit to spend it.

Tillable gift cards are single-use vouchers. Explain that at the sale, so the buyer and recipient know how to use the full value.

If the bill is higher

Use the voucher towards the bill, then take the difference by card or cash.

If the bill is lower

The voucher is used up. Any unspent value is not kept for another visit, and the card cannot be topped up.

Ready for the recipient’s visit.

Take their order, accept their gift card and serve them through Tillable.

Questions and answers.

How do customers buy a gift card?

Your team sells the card at the Tillable till. Enter its value and add an email address for delivery. Online gift-card purchasing is not currently supported.

Do I need to order printed gift cards?

No. The current gift card is a digital voucher with a QR code and a typed code. The recipient can show the email on their phone.

Can a gift card be used more than once?

No. Each voucher is single-use. Any value left after a smaller purchase is not retained, and vouchers cannot be topped up. Explain this when selling the card.

Can they pay the difference if their bill is higher?

Yes. Apply the voucher to the sale, then take the amount still due by card or cash.

What if a customer cannot find the email?

Find their card in the portal using the code or customer email. You can resend the gift-card email to the address saved on the card.
